Advance Dental Canley Heights provides modern preventative care for a healthy future. We believe in education first, with the goal of making you an expert in not just brushing and flossing, but in your overall oral care.
Getting a dental checkup every 6 months helps prevent major dental problems. Dentists can find areas of concern that you may not see or feel because dental issues generally don’t cause pain until they’re in an advanced stage. It’s better to catch them early than to wait until you’re at risk for losing teeth from advanced gum disease or have decay that requires a root canal.
Keeping teeth in good condition is also essential for your overall health. You can’t eat properly if your teeth hurt due to decay or misalignment. Disease in your mouth is associated with chronic health conditions. Gum disease may increase the risk of heart disease or worsen existing coronary artery disease. Bacteria from gum disease may cause lung infections or make it more difficult for patients with diabetes to control blood sugar.
At every appointment, we will do a thorough exam and clean and work with you to develop a personalised treatment plan. We have all the latest digital x-rays, 3D scanners and digital photography at the clinic for your convenience.
Our clean involves scaling and polishing your teeth to remove plaque and tartar build-up. We use an ultrasonic scaler to knock loose plaque and tartar painlessly from your teeth. To finish we polish your teeth with a buffer containing a dental grade toothpaste and fluoride to remove stains.

Full Oral Examination
Your dentist will perform a full oral examination of your teeth, gums and mouth, looking for signs of decay, disease or other problems. The goal of the dentist is to ensure that existing and potential problems are identified and communicated accordingly to the patient, with various options of treatment where applicable.
X-Rays
At Advance Dental Canley Heights, we recommend X-rays to be taken for every patient as it can diagnose problems that cannot be identified with the naked eye, such as decay between teeth, impacted teeth, abscesses, cysts, tumours, damage to jawbones etc. If you are pregnant, please inform the dentist and he/she will advise accordingly.
Cleaning
Regular check-ups always include a complete cleaning by the dentist with the use of special instruments that scrape below the gumline to remove built-up plaque and tartar that can potentially cause decay, gum disease, bad breath, tooth discolouration and other problems. The clean will also include flossing, polishing and fluoride treatment to enhance the health of the mouth.
We are currently offering a full check up, clean and x-rays for $180.
